Boxing Ceremony

Jingyi lowered her head and tidied the medicine box to calm her fast heartbeat and feverish cheeks.

After packing up the medical kit, Jingyi said, "Brother Xiao, please take a rest. I'll go to the big kitchen to teach the cooks how to cook."

Xiao Yilin said while tying his belt, "Go ahead, don't be too tired. You don't have to do some of the work yourself, just leave it to others."

Jingyi went directly to the big kitchen. Today she was going to teach the cooks how to make Dongpo pork elbow and sweet and sour pork.

Jing Yi thought that if she opened a restaurant, she would need a lot of soy sauce. The ones she made at home would not last long. Although she had made another batch of soy sauce before, it was not enough.

When having dinner with Xiao Yilin at noon, Jingyi said: "Brother Xiao, soy sauce and other seasonings are indispensable for cooking. If our restaurant requires a small amount of soy sauce every day when it opens, I think we can open a soy sauce workshop to brew soy sauce.

Not only can you use it yourself, but you can also sell it to others.

In the future, our restaurant can be opened as a chain store. As long as the food is delicious, there will be no worries about lack of customers. However, when opening a soy sauce workshop, I can only provide the recipe, and you will be responsible for the people and the venue."

Of course Xiao Yilin knows the wonderful uses of soy sauce. As long as he makes it, he doesn't have to worry about selling it. "You don't have to worry about this. I'll send someone to do it. We will still share the profits of the soy sauce workshop 50-50."

Jing Yi waved his hand, "That's not possible. I'm just going to come up with a recipe. Everything else is up to you, Brother Xiao. I want three achievements. Don't give in to me this time. I think three achievements are enough."

That’s a lot.”

Although the person in front of him was still dressed in men's clothing, Xiao Yilin already knew that she was a woman, so no matter how she looked at her, she didn't feel like a man, just a little girl.

Seeing that the little girl insisted on insisting, Xiao Yilin did not refuse, and said helplessly: "Okay, then I'll do as you say."

Xiao Yilin asked Gu Yu and Feng Zhi to guide the craftsmen to build two bread kilns. They would be ready for use in a few days.

It was almost the New Year's Day, which was the Spring Festival. Jingyi started to make some cakes.

Jingyi discovered that Xiao Yilin loved sweets, so she made steamed cakes, red bean cakes, biscuits, bean paste bread, etc.

Xiao Yilin tries it every day and is in a good mood.

He took a piece of steamed cake and said, "This steamed cake is soft and delicious. My father must love it. These biscuits are also delicious. Jing Yan, you really have a pair of skillful hands. I don't think even the royal chef in the palace can compare with you."

It's a pity that these pastries cannot be given to my father. These pastries must have gone bad when they were sent to the capital from Huizhou."

Jing Yi said: "What's the matter? You can send the recipes for these pastries to the capital."

Xiao Yilin shook his head, "The royal chefs in the palace don't have your skills. Even if they read the recipe, they may not be able to make this taste."

Jing Yi said: "It will work after a few more experiments. Otherwise, I will make some that last a long time. This biscuit can be stored for a long time as long as it is placed in a sealed container and is still very crispy. I am frying some twists.

Let's send some candied dates, steamed buns, etc. to the emperor together."

Xiao Yilin had never seen these kinds of food before, "Jing Yan, then you make it and I'll try it first. I'll also let the cooks learn from you."

Jing Yi first made the dumplings. To make the dumplings, use good flour, add a small amount of salt and water to knead it into a dough, then bake the dough, cut it into strips, and then roll it into strips, surround it and fill it in a basin, and sprinkle some on it

Edible oil.

When the noodles are soaked in the basin and the elastic force is just right, wrap the noodles around your hands, stretch them back and forth with your hands, stretch them into steamed buns of uniform thickness, then put them into the oil pan and flip them gently with chopsticks.

Control the heat to add color and fry into large or small handfuls of golden and crispy dumplings.

Jingyi fried the small twists again. The twists were sweet and salty, both crispy and delicious.

Xiao Yilin ate the rice dumplings and twists and nodded, "Well, both of them are delicious. My father will definitely like them. Thank you, Jing Yan. I'll have someone prepare what you made today and send it back to the capital. But it will have to wait until after the festival."

received."

And here in the capital, the festive gift that Xiao Yilin asked Xiao Zhen to give has arrived.

Han Li quickly walked into the palace and bowed to report, "Your Majesty, the gift from Prince Jing has arrived, and there is also a letter from Prince Jing."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chenghan immediately put down the brush in his hand, "Oh, please hand over the letter quickly."

Han Li presented the letter and gift list together.

Xiao Chenghan opened the letter first, and the more he read it, the happier he became. The corners of his mouth were raised high, with joy overflowing. Then he laughed out loud, "Hahaha, Fourth Brother is getting better. The letter said that the toxins in the body will be eliminated soon."

It can be cleared up. After the body consolidates and rests for a period of time, it will be completely healed. Now I can practice a little martial arts. Great, my Lord, the God of War of the Jin Dynasty, is coming back."

Han Li bowed and congratulated, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. When Prince Jing returns, Beiyan will definitely not dare to act rashly again. The juniors in the court will be much more honest."

Xiao Chenghan nodded and continued to read the letter and said: "Hey, this guy also sent me a cook who said he could make a lot of new food. He also sent me vegetables grown by Dr. Chu himself, saying that

It's very delicious. Hahaha, it seems that he respects Dr. Chu very much. He also knows how to care about my meals. He has really made progress."

Xiao Chenghan was really happy, and a big stone that was weighing on his heart fell to the ground. As long as his fourth son returns safely, the situation in the DPRK will be much more stable.

Han Li smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this means that Prince Jing has been thinking about you all the time. I saw the vegetables that Prince Jing sent. The Chinese cabbage is really good. It is said that there is also a newly cultivated cabbage.

Beautiful radish. I will ask the cook sent by Prince Jing’s Mansion to make some dishes for you to try tonight."

Xiao Chenghan nodded, "Okay, let the cook make some food to try. Later, you can send the fourth son's gift to Concubine Shu to her palace."

Xiao Chenghan read the letter and then picked up the gift list and looked at it. There were gold, silver, jade, some furs, mountain products, and some precious medicinal materials. There were also the vegetables grown by Dr. Chu.

At dinner, Xiao Chenghan ate his son's filial piety. The cook from Prince Jing's Mansion learned cooking from Jing Yi. Today he made braised pork, steamed dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork, and made pork ribs and radish soup with white radish.

I made sweet and sour radish shreds from radish.

Coupled with the meals prepared by other chefs, there were many dishes on Xiao Chenghan's dining table.

Han Li was waiting on the side, and the aroma of braised pork penetrated his nose, making him swallow his saliva involuntarily.

He opened the lid of the porcelain basin containing the ribs soup, and a rich aroma wafted out.

Xiao Chenghan pointed at the braised pork, and Han Li immediately picked up a few pieces of fat and thin meat and placed them in the bowl in front of Xiao Chenghan.

Han Li said: "Your Majesty, this is called Braised Pork. It is said that Doctor Chu taught the cook of Prince Jing's Mansion to make it. Please try it."
